This is a study of Trans Atlantic airmails circa 1928-1940. This study will encompass, rates, routes, crashes, destinations and origins. The carriers being studied will be, Lufthansa, LATI, Air France along with CGA the parent company of Air France. Along with these I will also be looking at PAA., Pan American Airways as they serviced Central and some parts of South America during this period of time. Reference material used within is, Deutsche Lufthansa South Atlantic Air Mail Service 1934-1939 by Graue and Duggan, The Italian South Atlantic Air Mail Service 1939-1941 by R. Beith, Bridging The Continents in Wartime, Hans E. Aitink and Egbert Hovenkamp. I would also like to give out a big Thank You to Dr. Andres Schlichter of Argentina along with Alec McGrattan of Scotland for whom this would not be possible without their mentoring and unselfish help.

Hi Don, congratulation for this great website, I appreciate that the trans-Atlantic airmails have found their way into the www. I have added a link to your site on my website http://www.eZEP.de (see at collections, down towards the end). Looking forward to seeing some more nice airmail covers on your site!

Good to see such an interesting site. It only manifests your great passion for Trans-Atlantic airmails! I hope that these pages will continue growing, and that many more beautiful “finds” will be added.

Nice to find such a site on the web. I am collecting commercial airmail with cancellations of air mail labels with rates and routes.(combi-mail air/ surface) This also includes Trans-Atlantic airmail, and this website may be of good help !
